interfaces in typescript code example

Example 1: typescript interface function

interface IEmployee {
    empCode: number;
    empName: string;
    getSalary: (number) => number; // arrow function
    getManagerName(number): string; 
}

Example 2: typescript class interface

interface IPerson {
  name: string
  age: number
  hobby?: string[]
}

class Person implements IPerson {
  name: string
  age: number
  hobby?: string[]

  constructor(name: string, age: number, hobby: string[]) {
    this.name = name
    this.age = age
    this.hobby = hobby
  }
}

const output = new Person('john doe', 23, ['swimming', 'traveling', 'badminton'])
console.log(output)

Example 3: typescript type vs interface

// Types are used to enforce the data type of a variable
// For example:

type Weekday = 'Monday' | 'Tuesday' | 'Wednesday' | 'Thursday' | 'Friday' | 'Saturday' | 'Sunday';

let day1: Weekday = 'Monday';  // OK
let day2: Weekday = 'January'; // ERROR: 'January' is not assignable to type 'Weekday'

// Interfaces are used to enforce the shape of an object
// For example:

interface Person {
  firstName: string;
  lastName: string;
  age: number;
}

// OK
let person1: Person = {
    firstName: 'James',
    lastName: 'Smith',
    age: 30
}

// ERROR: property 'age' is missing
let person2: Person = {
    firstName: 'Mary',
    lastName: 'Williams'
}

// NOTE: Technically, you can use types to enforce the shape of objects,
//       but that's not what they are intended for.

Example 4: typescript class implements interface

interface Task{
    name: String; //property
    run(arg: any):void; //method
}

class MyTask implements Task{
    name: String;
    constructor(name: String) {
        this.name = name;
    }
	run(arg: any): void {
        console.log(`running: ${this.name}, arg: ${arg}`);
    }
}

let myTask: Task = new MyTask('someTask');
myTask.run("test");

Example 5: typescript interface

interface LabeledValue {
  label: string;
}

function printLabel(labeledObj: LabeledValue) {
  console.log(labeledObj.label);
}

let myObj = { size: 10, label: "Size 10 Object" };
printLabel(myObj);Try

Example 6: typescript interface

interface NumberOrStringDictionary {
  [index: string]: number | string;
  length: number; // ok, length is a number
  name: string; // ok, name is a string
}Try
